Anwen
and 48 other koalas underwent up to five months of special care in the
hospital, with some of them suffering from life-threatening health issues.
Still, Port Macquarie’s employees and volunteers gave their best to save them,
and luckily their efforts paid off.

“Their habitat is recovering beautifully with the recent rain and there is plenty of food and water. What a journey! Oh the stories they will tell their furry friends!,” Port Macquarie Koala Hospital wrote in a social media post while uploading some cute photos of recovered koalas.

🐨 AGAINST ALL ODDS… 49 bushfire-ravaged Koalas were tirelessly treated and rehabilitated by the Koala Hospital Port…

Earlier in the week Anwen, the first female koala to be admitted during the bushfires of October 2019, was joyfully released back into her original habitat in the Lake Innes Nature Reserve. We just love this video, giving us a glimpse into a day in the life of the amazing staff and volunteers (and their furry charges!) at Koala Hospital Port Macquarie – thank you! Aaaawwww – go well little Anwen! #lovekoalas #savethekoalas #iloveportmacquarie #fightingspirit #firerecovery #home #regrowth #mytree #thankyou
